Max

Let’s start with the cons because there are so few Con-the instructions on canning leave a lot to be desired and it would have been cool to include recipes for the canning and sou vie (sp) features. Pros- the touch screen is large enough I can read it without my glasses! Nice It works exactly like the other instapots so I was familiar with how it operates. I have used it for canning meat and veg and it works perfect and so easy! Set it and forget it. Unlike my canner you can’t leave because you have to watch the gauge and make sure it stays to the correct pressure. It has a temp inside the canner so you can see that it’s hot enough to kill germs. It’s max canning load is 4 pint jars which is perfect for my little projects that I do most of. I dig out the big canner if I’m doing a large load of something. It has a sous vie (sp) feature I haven’t used yet but can’t wait to try. I hear you can poach eggs this way and they turn out perfect and easy. It’s less expensive then a presto canner and does way more stuff. The competition really needs to up its game to keep up with this machine.

Perfect electric canner!!! It’s footprint is small enough to keep out on the counter and that’s great because I use it all the time now. You can can up to 4 pints at a time. Which is good for me and my husband. I’ve done meats and beans so far. I haven’t used the other features because I have the biggest instapot they make which I use all the time also. You will love the feature of propping the lid up on the side as shown in the picture. My big one doesn’t have that feature and it is quite useful because you don’t have to look for a spot to set down a big moisture dripping lid. I hope they make the big one with that feature, I think I would upgrade! Super easy to program and Clean. This one is well designed. Worth it $$ I love it!!!

I bought this particular Instant Pot for one feature only, and that is the canning function. I have the Instant Pot Lux model that I purchased four years ago and I use it to cook just about everything. However, I just recently started to can, and needed something safe that I could use for canning. I’m intimidated by the old style canners like my grandmother had! So I started looking for something that would be easy to use, and safe for my canning. I was pleasantly surprised when I found the Instant Pot Pro Max, and it had a canning setting. I knew then that I had to purchase this. I haven’t used the canning function yet, but I’m looking forward to using it in the summer. However, I have used this to fix a variety of dishes. Soup, ribs, rice, beans, corn on the cob, green beans, steamed broccoli, etc. The first time I used my new Instant Pot I noticed how they simplified the controls, and the pressure release is now automatic. To release pressure you use the dial, and the steam releases on it’s own reducing the chance of getting scalded. This version also has a grove on each handle that holds the lid. All in all I am so satisfied with my new Instant Pot. I can’t wait to try the canning function!

I have had a the Wifi version of one of these for 9 months, used it twice. When I decided it was a good time to start using it more, I found that the Wifi didn't work anymore due to their changing things around. I figured I would rather have a better display anyway. I don't do most of the things these are capable of, I simply do occasional slow cooking when I can do that with a smaller pot (I have a normal larger slow cooker for normal use) or for pressure cooking. Since I didn't need all the other bells and whistles, I found what I DID want was a good screen, with usable details. My Wifi model left me guessing if it was even working or not. I love how this one shows me the warm up, the pressure, the release, all the states as they happen. I don't have any issues with the interface, it's easy to set what I want, program or change programs, and see at a glance just what is happening right now. It IS odd not having the normal steam release but I'm getting used to that. It's worked well, handled what I've done with it easily. These really do offer so many better options for families for ways to cook, and shorter cook times. Mine will start getting much more use as I become more familiar with the things I can cook with it.

Nunca había cocinado sin saber jajaj, funciona excelente

Escribo esta reseña después de tenerla por varios meses y utilizarla casi a diario, cambió por completo la forma en la que cocino y ahorro mucho tiempo por que no tengo que hacer nada una vez que comienza la cocción a presión, se puede utilizar el mismo bowl para saltear y cocinar a presión por lo que hay menos cosas que limpiar, las recetas que encuentro en internet las convierto de presión alta a max solo con reducir el tiempo pero no siempre es conveniente ya que toma más tiempo en llegar a la máxima presión que lo que tarda en llegar a presión alta o baja. La función de Sous Vide tarda mucho tiempo en comenzar pero si me ha dado buenos resultados, solo me falta utilizar la función de enlatar de manera completa, la he usado para esterilizar frascos. El resto de las funciones si son excelentes, se nota la diferencia del arroz cuando tengo habilitada la función de nutriboost, el yogurt queda delicioso y hace que valga la pena la espera de 8 horas. De las grandes ventajas que tiene este modelo con la presión max (15 psi) es que puedes tener frijoles que estaban secos hechos en 20 minutos de cocción (más aprox 10 mins entre lo que tarda en entrar a presión y expulsar el vapor), ya no necesitas dejarlos reposar en agua toda la noche, al hacer fondos con hueso de pollo o res si sabe mucho mejor si se hace con la presión máxima.

Me parece buena olla, ya he probado otras (phillips, Instant Pot Ultra), asi que mi opinion es que es buena y tiene el plus en particular de poder configurar la forma de liberar la presión al terminar la cocción, tiene tres formas: la tradicional manual o de forma automatica como son en tiempos diferidos o por completo. Tiene pantalla touch agradable y sencilla, asi que me parece buen detalle No tiene tantas opciones como la ULTRA, asi que se tienen que saber los tiempos o calcularle, la Ultra por ejemplo tiene ya las opciones predefinidas para varios tipos de cocción sin tener que calcular. Esta MAX trae su propia hoja dentro del paquete que indica los tiempos de cocción de diferentes productos los cuales he comprobado algunos y realmente estan fuera de la realidad, un ejemplo son los frijoles negros, los tiene que se cocen en un tiempo de D: 16 a 20 mins o S: 5 a 7 mins y realmente tarda como 50 mins como minimo... asi que solo es cuestion de calculo. Lo negativo si es que se puede considerar asi: - El pitido de final de cocción es muy bajo me gustaria que se pudiera regular el sonido. - No es Wifi De lo demas es una olla excelente.

Tuve una instant pot evo plus, que devolví pues dejó de servir después de 4 meses de uso, porque dejó de presurizar. Decidí comprar una nueva olla instant pot porque es sumamente útil en la cocina. Es eficiente ! Este modelo MAX, me encanta porque es touch y puedo programar la ventilación automática, lenta o nula, desde un principio, así no tengo que estar pendiente, y evitas el riesgo de tocar el área de vapor. Pero sí creo que al trabajar con 15psi , tarda más minutos en precalentar . Si vas a cocinar varios platillos seguidos, ejemplo, primero arroz y luego verduras, es importante considerar que te llevará mas tiempo.
